Abstract:s: Acrylonitrile‐based adsorbents are effective candidates for metal ions removal from wastewater. However, their performance is often limited by their unsatisfied stability, reusability, and sorption efficiency. In this contribution, the amino group of urea was cross‐linked with the carboxyl group of the firstly formed AN (acrylonitrile) and AA (acrylic acid) copolymer to improve the strength, while the cyanide group of AN was dedicatedly reacted with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to obtain an amidoxime group e… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
